CHAPTER ONE
Cassandra giggled, she liked being called Peewee by her brother. Her giggles were stopped short after she finished her homework, loud booms and gunshots were heard outside. "Basement, now!" Peewee was scooped up by her brother, being carried downstairs as she screamed for her mother.
Bang.
The glass shattered as she lost her vision of her mother, shock plastered on her face as the bomb exploded on impact. She blinked, shivering in fear as she let her feet hit the cold concrete floor. She took her shoes, that her brother gave her. Two pairs of shoes, her summer and winter shoes, "Why do I need these?" Her brother sighed before leaving, "Put them in your pack. Go upstairs and pack up, we're leaving." Peewee whimpered as she walked downstairs, to see her brother being forced onto a cattle car, with her being shoved into a separate cattle car, holding her bag of clothing, a comb, her winter shoes, and anything she would desperately need. She curled up in the very front, by the engine. She laid her head on the bag, tying the opening closed to prevent anyone from thieving. She drifted off.
This is all I'm writing for now, if I get good feedback I'll continue. Otherwise, I can always ask to get it deleted.
